Abstract
Hyponatremia is a common complication following acute or chronic central nervous system disorders. It may be due to inappropriate secretion of antidiuretic hormone or the cerebral salt wasting syndrome, which are usually attributed to each other due to identical clinical presentation. Since the pathogenesis and the treatment of these two syndromes are different, the cerebral salt wasting syndrome must be clearly differentiated from the syndrome of inappropriate secretion of antidiuretic hormone. Cerebral salt wasting syndrome is rarely seen in children. In this article, 2 patients with the cerebral salt wasting syndrome are presented. Diagnosis and the treatment of this syndrome are discussed in view of the literature.
Özet
Akut veya kronik santral sinir sistemi problemleri sonucu oluşan hiponatremi, uygunsuz ADH salgılanması veya serebral tuz kaybı tablosuna bağlı olabilir. Oluşum mekanizması ve tedavileri farklı olan bu iki tablonun iyi tanınması ve ayırt edilmesi gerekir. Çocuklarda serebral tuz kaybının az görülmesi konunun önemini artırmaktadır. Yazımızda iki serebral tuz kaybı tablosu sunulup tanı ve tedavisi gözden geçirilmiştir.
